Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Cellulose is a primary source of dietary fiber. It is found in the skins of fruits, the leaves and stems of vegetables, and legumes. Highly processed foods, such as white bread, contain little if any cellulose because it is removed during processing. Humans cannot digest cellulose, so it has no energy value. It is useful because it provides bulk for the stool.
